At what height did you keep the KS5000 from the tops of your plants during Veg, Pre-Flower, and Flower ??? I just got this same light for my new 4x4 tent a week ago and am trying to get it set & dialed in
@Happydays58, Thanks for letting me know that. So far my grow is going pretty good with my autoflowers currently on day 61. I'm also growing some other autoflowers outside along with 2 photoperiod plants that I wound up with a few accidental clones from that are about ready to be transplanted into pots and which I'm going to put into my grow tent as I've got a lot of extra space as I originally started off with 5 plants in the tent but had to pull 2 out that turned out to be males. I've got the light set to 100% currently and figure will try to see how the clones do at like 30" below the light at 100%
@LostToFollowUp, I keep it all the way up on 75% from seedling to week before preflower stretch. After that I use a PAR meter and keep the canopy around 500-550PPFD w/ 20hrs on.
